Neutron stars are among the densest known objects in the universe and an ideal laboratory for the strange physics of super-condensed matter. While the simultaneously measurements of mass and radius of non-rotating neutron stars may impose…

We study the gravitational collapse of a magnetized neutron star using a novel numerical approach able to capture both the dynamics of the star and the behavior of the surrounding plasma. In this approach, a fully general relativistic…
Despite the recent excitement over the r-mode instability of rotating stars, these modes are not yet well-understood for stellar models appropriate to neutron stars - perfect fluid models in which both the equilibrium and perturbed…
The problem of having an accurate description of the spacetime around neutron stars is of great astrophysical interest. For astrophysical applications, one needs to have a metric that captures all the properties of the spacetime around a…
We present the first computations of quasiequilibrium binary neutron stars with different mass components in general relativity, within the Isenberg-Wilson-Mathews approximation. We consider both cases of synchronized rotation and…
The innermost stable cicular orbit (ISCO) of an accretion disc orbiting a neutron star (NS) is often assumed a unique prediction of general relativity. However, it has been argued that ISCO also appears around highly elliptic bodies…
